Also, IIRC, NMS doesn't have different gravities, right? Been a year or two since I properly played, but I don't remember ever really jumping higher or being forced to the ground. That's one of the sacrifices for seamless landing.

I don't buy this. Plenty of games allow you to adjust gravity on the fly using console commands. All they would have to do if you enter a new planet's atmosphere, is adjust the gravity value.

Source engine has allowed this forever, changing gravity on the fly. No reason it can't be implemented in other engines.
